Description

My talk will be talking about how I came into the field of High energy physics considering the fact that I am an engineer. I will talk about why I chose to continue in this path and what I think the possibilities are when it comes to gaining insights into the inner workings of the universe, how innovation can come from this field and what the future might hold when it comes to physics discovery and their implications on the world.
